156: Chapter 156 Mysterious Green Star
"Su Fan, this Luye Planet is so beautiful, and what's even rarer is that the environment here is actually very suitable for human survival!" Xia Feifei was hopping and skipping across a green prairie like a husky off its leash.
Luye Planet was the name Su Fan had given this planet, because it was entirely green and extremely rich in wild flora and fauna.
"I always feel like this planet is unusual." Su Fan's brow furrowed slightly.
The vitality here was simply too exuberant!
"Red Queen, are there any anomalies in the detection results?" Su Fan asked.
"Master, besides having a large number of biological organisms, no other anomalies were found," the Red Queen replied in a serious tone.
"Hmm." Su Fan nodded. "System, is there anything special about this planet?"
"Please explore on your own, Host," the System said indifferently.
Su Fan's gaze narrowed; usually, when the System spoke like this, it was effectively admitting there was a problem with the planet.
"Su Fan, since the Red Queen can't detect anything with the probes, we'll just have to explore it ourselves. Perhaps we can find the differences with our own eyes," the Great Elder suggested.
"I agree!" Xia Feifei raised her hand to vote.
"Alright then, let's explore and see what's so unique about this beautiful planet!" Su Fan said with a smile.
"Red Queen, sink the kongming spaceship to the bottom of this planet's ocean and then activate silent stealth mode to avoid being discovered by enemies in space."
"Yes! Master!" the Red Queen answered solemnly.
A spaceship's silent state involves cutting the engines and then shutting down all systems, retaining only the most basic communication capabilities.
After the Red Queen sank the ship to the seabed, the three of them began their journey of exploration and discovery.
Luye Planet was massive, its volume rivaling hundreds of Jupiters; because it was a terrestrial planet, its mass would only be greater.
The ratio of sea to land on this planet was 1 to 9; the ocean area accounted for only one-tenth, while the land area reached a staggering nine-tenths—a delightful thought.
With such vast land and rich resources, if the Xia people could relocate here, it could definitely support a population of trillions!
"Su Fan, the animals here are so amazing and huge. Look at that creature that looks like a Tyrannosaurus Rex; it's a full thousand meters tall!" Xia Feifei said in surprise.
They were piloting E-class mechas, flying slowly just above the treetops of the forest.
"This thing is on par with an adult Star-Devouring Beast; I wonder which of the two is stronger," Su Fan said with a laugh.
"How about I go up and test its strength?" Xia Feifei was eager to try.
"Don't! This planet is very strange; for now, we'll respond to all changes by remaining constant and just explore silently," Su Fan hurriedly stopped her.
In space exploration, it's better to be cautious; although they were currently using Androids and remote-controlled mechas, which temporarily kept their lives out of danger.
However, if one day, in a certain area, Quantum Communication stops working and this method of using remote-controlled Androids and mechas to avoid danger disappears, they would need to have already developed the habit of being cautious.
"Su Fan, that big guy is chasing us quickly!" Xia Feifei suddenly said.
Su Fan saw it without Xia Feifei needing to say a word.
A thousand-meter-tall giant beast versus 99-meter-tall mechas—the giant beast treated them like easy targets!
"Accelerate and get away from it; don't engage in a fight," Su Fan ordered.
With a slight acceleration of their mechas, the thousand-meter-tall giant beast was instantly left in the dust.
The reason they were using F-class mechas was because they were small; although their top speed was only 2,000 kilometers per second, it was more than enough on a planet.
Additionally, F-class mechas were cheap to build, so it wouldn't be heartbreaking even if they were damaged.
The three of them continued to explore Luye Planet.
"Su Fan, look, there's a super, super big mushroom over there."
"Heavens, what is that? A spider with a monkey's face?"
"Su Fan, there's a huge cave over there, let's go inside and take a look!"
"I was too naive; a cave doesn't necessarily contain a fortuitous encounter, it might also be a dung pit!"
"There's a glowing tree over there, let's go check it out!"
"This... so disgusting, the leaves are full of fleshy maggots!"
"There's a herd of white horses with wings over there, so beautiful. Could they be the legendary Pegasi?"
"So many snakes! Go, go quickly, they're crawling onto my mecha!"
"There's a swamp ahead; I feel like there must be a fortuitous encounter in the swamp!"
"Toads can actually be with swans, that's a real eye-opener!"
"Eh? What kind of animal's egg is this? It's so big! And it's colorful!"
"I admit I was naive; such a beautiful egg actually hatched a Ghost-faced Centipede!"
"Is this the legendary Lingzhi? A hundred-meter-tall Lingzhi?"
"Heavens, this subverts my worldview; this Lingzhi is actually an animal, it can run!"
"Look over there, that white, chubby thing making faces, doesn't it look like Ginseng?"
"Su Fan, I feel like we've come to a fantasy world; the creatures here are so magical!"
Along the way, Xia Feifei's mouth never stopped as the various magical creatures dazzled her eyes.
Su Fan and the Great Elder were also constantly amazed by what they saw.
"Feifei, this place is even more magical than the underwater world of Europa," Su Fan remarked.
"The various creatures are indeed comparable to Europa's underwater world, except Europa doesn't just have unique life, it also has a..." Speaking to this point, Xia Feifei suddenly stopped.
Su Fan's heart jolted, a thought on the verge of surfacing!
Could it be? Is there also a High-Dimensional Lifeforms here?
The Great Elder's expression also changed. Frowning, he said, "There's a terrifying lifeform in Europa; could there be something similar here?"
Even now, the Great Elder didn't actually know what terrifying creature was under Europa, but he didn't ask, because he knew Su Fan had secrets and pressing for answers might not be good.
"Perhaps," Su Fan said in a heavy tone.
"Our subsequent exploration must be even more cautious!"
"Also, I think we should explore the seabed; after all, the terrifying lifeform in Europa is at the bottom of the sea."
Xia Feifei and the Great Elder nodded.
"How about this, we explore straight toward the ocean. If we reach the shore and still have no results, we'll immediately go underwater," Su Fan suggested.
"Okay!"
"Agreed!"
The three of them resumed their journey of exploration.
Luye Planet has many forests, with a forest coverage rate of at least seventy percent.
So, most of the time, Su Fan and the others were traveling through the forests.
Usually, they would fly and scout just above the treetops; once they discovered something unique, they would immediately land for a closer look.
The trees on Luye Planet are enormous, with many growing to several thousand meters tall.
Su Fan and the others even discovered several Super giant trees over ten thousand meters tall!
These Super giant trees were not only large enough, but their ages were even more staggering, with each one reaching over a million years old!
Why hasn't such a magical planet been discovered by the Canglan Empire yet?
Or have they already discovered it, but for some reason, they gave up on developing it?
The truth became increasingly mysterious and blurred!
